Look like it was fast. Reminds me of the sculls on the Charles river.

Interesting, thanks.

In Rome there’s a five-acre, 160-foot-high hill, Monte Testaccio, that consists entirely of shattered amphorae, mostly 18-gallon olive oil jars from Spain.

I just read a little more about this. Absolutely amazing.

Interesting. Arles was the venue btw of Vincent van Gogh through much of his life.
